    Maverick ET-732

    Hey All, just picked up the ET-732. My question is, it says you should not crush the probe wires betweeen the lid..I always did that with my old Redi Check and it didn't harm the wires...Do I have to thread through the vent holes or can I still rest the lid on the wires?

    1st attempt at a brisket flat on smoke day

    Thank you Dave! Also, thanks Jon, and your first try looks like it turned out awesome..I saw the HH stickied and I have studied it a bunch but I guess I am just confused on temps for just a flat. The HH method says you should stay around 325-350 for packers, but people that cook only flats seem...

    1st attempt at a brisket flat on smoke day

    How many hours per pound should I count on roughly? I know all cuts take different amounts of time...but a roug estimate would be good to try and time it right

    1st attempt at a brisket flat on smoke day

    sounds like I got worked over by that butcher...I'm wondering if he just charged me for the whole thing even though he trimmed it. It also sounds like you guys haven't had luck cooking flats...strike two! Should I just cook it low and slow? I have no idea what to do now..some one out there has...

    Smoque's cheesy potatos

    Cool! Give it a shot, they are really good...you will never buy boxed au gratins again I promise...let me know what you think and if you tweak it at all (oh and I always cut the potatoes in half length wise before cut into 1/4 inch slices so the rounds aren't gignormous) Cheers!

    1st attempt at a brisket flat on smoke day

    Hey Guys/Gals, So I am attempting my first brisket flat this Saturday. I went to a local butcher and asked for a brisket flat and he ended up trimming it down to 5.35 pounds. I have no idea if it's choice or anything but dang it was expensive..$6.98 per pound! I couldn't believe it when he told...

    New Addition To The Family, Genesis EP-310!

    Hey Jason, Mine is a 2011 EP-310. Picked it up at Ace like you said...I ordered it from Ace because they put it together for me and it's only a few blocks from my house..I am not sure any other retailers that sell the EP's? I know Home Depot doesn't

    Science of steak flavor

    I love Ruth's Chris...it's one of our favorite steak places. Even though it's a chain, they do it right IMO. Many will argue especially since Chicago has a ton of local and famous steak houses to choose from...but we always go back to Ruth's! Their lobster bisque is the best I have ever had as well.
